Capture settings App stack in writable Volume

Hello

Is it possible to capture changes in the settings of programs within an AppStack using writable Volumes?

We have a set of accounts that records the lists of company in the program data directory. These data are different for every user who uses the program. Ideally we want to roll out the program in an AppStack rather than installation on the base image, but users will constantly lose their settings unless we can store the data in some way.

If we deploy the program through an AppStack with an accessible volume in writing attached will be changes to the program get saved or not?

Thank you!

Yes. Please use writable volume (which are unique for each user) to save the data specific to the user or application settings.

  • App stack troubleshooting or absence - Office 365

    I'm looking to reassure, help, advice before go me crazy. Please excuse my evacuation, because I've lost months of precious time trying to get this working so my frustration level is at its zenith. I understand the add-on app volume was an acquisition, but the lack of documentation, tools, etc. that come with it is to the bottom right embarrising to what VMware charges for this. I get the concept and have been excitied about its implementation to get rid of ThinApps, the App - V and RDS applications, but the inconsistecy of this solution which makes me have doubts. I currently work in a test environment with view 6.2, EMU 3.7 and App volume 2.9. Our linked clone pool is configured with a base image installed Windows 7 without anything except Office 365 (because it won't work like a pile of app). I used the guide to optimize Windows 7, downloaded the Horizon tool for Windows 7 and everything seems to work well. Office 365 has been installed using this guide: How to configure Office 365 Pro in an environment non-persistent VDI | SvenHuisman.com and the pool is configured without persistent discs or persona, but use the EMU. Now, on to the problem.

    Default application stack:

    -Adobe Reader

    -Java / Flash / Silverlight / Quicktime

    -The client software ERP basic

    -Chrome

    -Firefox

    -Webex productivity tools

    -Cisco Jabber

    Admin App Stack:

    -VMware vSphere Client

    -FileZilla

    -mRemoteNG / PuTTY

    -SolarWinds IP address Tracker

    -EMU management console

    -Other utilities

    All batteries in the app have been installed on a clean image of nothing but VMware tools and agent of volume App. The two app chimneys have been created several times to see if the installation has been damaged, but the result is the same.

    Questions:

    • Whenever an app stack is attached (computer or user), Office 365 will stop working. It may take a week, a day, an hour, etc. He just not launch and give weird messages. Sometimes a reboot will work, a refreshment or recompose is sometimes necessary. Remove the battery of the app has not proven to make a difference if a restart does not help. The range of messages to "run the repair facility" at the same time where the .exe is missing.
    • If no app stacks are attached, Office 365 and the virtual machine works perfectly and not hang or stop working.
    • If only the default application stack is set to the user, strange behaviour performance will happen. For example, Chrome sometimes will not load a Web page, will be very slow, or when a new tab is loaded, you will get the "Oops... He's dead Jim" message and nothing will work as if you close and then restart Chrome. Other applications will be weird problems that cannot be reproduced. However, if I connect the battery to the application on the computer, these questions appear. I guess because of some of the services that are installed with Adobe and Chrome?
    • If the default application stack and stack app admin are attached, the virtual machine will randomly crash and restart. I looked through the ESX newspapers, VDM, App stack newspapers and even event viewer and there is nothing specific that appears. The machine makes a complete stop and is launched upward by the server.

    I'm sure there are other issues that I don't forget everything, but is important to Office 365. I can't identify what stack app is causing the problem. For example, I thought it was the battery of the Admin, so I removed that and ran a few weeks without any problem on the default stack. My colleague had the same configuration and now its started crashing. I guess my biggest complaint is that I can't find any type of log to see what happens when this virtual machine is stopped or when the Office 365 stops working. I feel like I'm just throwing darts blind folded and because the questions are consistent, it takes 2-3 weeks just to find out that it does not work. If anyone has experienced something like this, please let me know. I would like to open a VMware support ticket, but because I can't identify the question I know that it will be a huge waste of time (given my past experience with VMware support). I'm also tired of playing the game "awaiting the next version", that we purchased in December 2014 because he had to change everything and I feel that VMware pushed this product down our throats without integrating fully into the stack of the Horizon (off soap box now). I fortunately provide logs, screenshots, examples if anyone wants to take a shot at this. Thanks for letting me escape and thanks for any help or advice on this issue. I feel better... for now

    First things first. Office 365 is NOT supported with App Volumes today. It will be with 2.10 Q4 coming calendar.

    There is a different license scheme used with Office 365 and there are technical considerations with how it fits into the operating system. The problems you describe we know and are working on wth 2.10. It is not a specific, but rather to Office 365 AppStack himself. Stay tuned for more information as I have, I'll share.

  • The writable volumes - hang on logoff

    Hello

    sometimes on logoff when an accessible writable volume is assigned to a user, the logoff process hangs, remaining in "Signing out" forever. I have to reset or power of the VM off the coast. Is this a known bug or I do something wrong?

    Kind regards

    Cristiano

    Hey,.

    It looks that I do these days in a lot of the assumptions

    If you use accessible volumes in writing, you need to refresh the desktop whenever you used it because otherwise the settings of a user might be in accessible volume in writing of another user.

    Although I would still say (if possible out of the classroom due to high IOPS / s) to refresh the desktop if you use pooled floating desktop computers.

    This is very unusual.  Two thoughts come to mind.

    1. Your storage space is too full?  Check the settings > general > storage & use iCloud > manage storage (in storage).  Make sure you have at least 10% (hopefully more than 15%) of total storage of your iPhone for free.
    2. Use iTunes (you must use the current version - 12.5.1, as this is the only version supporting iOS 10) to upgrade.  See 'Your device via iTunes update' here: update the iOS on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch - Apple Support software
  • Folder redirection folders and writable Volumes

    If we use the folder redirection via GPO for our desktop view and also deploy writable volumes, how can we be sure that writable volumes does not store the same file data which is already redirected? For example, if a user stored a 20 GB on the desktop file, and we have the folder redirection by storing this safe to say the home directory of the user, how can we ensure that accessible volumes in writing is not to store this 20 GB file too?

    Thank you

    Hey Iforbes,

    We also use the folder redirection in our virtual machine as well as writable volumes.

    As a reference, Appvolumes does nothing different that would make a 'normal' Windows machine I mean, it's that writable volumes stores no information that is not written on their local drive.

    If you configure the folder redirection and files of succeeeds redirection of files stored on the homedrive because windows sees this directory as the location to store the information, it is not stored locally. However, if for the folder redirection for some reason fails and that the Office IS stored locally, information will be saved in the accessible volume writable.

    Because the folder redirection is performed at the opening session that it is already in place when the user connects so information will not be stored on the available volume in writing. We do this successfully with desktop, my documents (and subfolders) and downloads and it works like a charm.

  • Writable Volume models - differences?

    Hoping someone can get an idea on what the differences are (as appropriate) and when to use the different models of accessible Volume writable? Here are my assumptions of the model types:

    • template_uia_only - user installed Apps
    • Profile of template_uia_plus - user installed Apps + user profile settings
    • template_profile_only - user profile settings

    Each model is set up as a thin 10 GB configured VMDK and seem to contain the same files for each type. Is there a global impact, or required for the use of a model on another type?

    TIA,

    -Jason

    About the documentation, you're not alone, I really hope we can get more technical documentation...

    What is happening is that the Appvolumes filter driver can see those that are written in this place, and because you're using a common desktop computer (which return to its basic configuration) all changes are written automatically in writing accessible volume using a mount point...

    Not all the files and registry settings are in accessible volume in writing, however, some information will be filtered and discarded as tips and temporary files...

    Keep in mind to create an image of gold with a different user who receives an accessible volume in writing. Otherwise, there will be one profile folder, in the gold statue that will be also the same as that of the available volume in writing, and this can cause stability problems... And don't forget to completely refresh the machine after use.

  • Storage of settings App, which is deleted when uninstalling

    Hello

    I was wondering who will be the right way to implement a storage of locale for an app?

    Of course, if I use a shared file as a storage device, when the application is uninstalled, the data will not be erased. I need data parameters to delete whenever the application is uninstalled.

    Thanks in advance!

    I suggest to use QSettings class to store this information.

    QSettings

    By using the class QSettings data are written to the directory /data/ of your application and are not replaced must release you an update.  As it is a subdirectory of your application, the user must uninstall your application settings/preferences will be also deleted.

  • Too small to read the text Windows 7 App stacked.

    I have WIndows 7 and I chose to always combine my task bar buttons.  Unfortunately, I did something (and have no idea what) who did the too small to read the text of the stacked applications descriptions.  Infact, the icons seem to very small and cropped on the bottom and the text is clipped on the top and bottom of each line next to each icon.

    I should add that my test of the icon of the office and the size of the icons are both fine and did not appear to change.  It is only the text and the icon in the stacked list of applications in the space bar & task Pinned.  The text and the icon are also cultivated even if the application is not stacked.

    I have a picture of the issue of a screenshot, but don't know how to reach here.

    Hi Charles,

    Maybe it's that the program may have changed some of your registry settings and this is what is causing this problem. If it has not been too long, you can try perfomring a restore before, when this problem occurred.

    Alternatively, you can try an in place upgrade to windows 7 described here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2255099

  • Cannot access PC settings, Apps installs not opening and closing, updates

    So... i started with a connection internet dropout. No matter how many times I've selected automatically connects it kept being changed. Used scans etc, found nothing. The problem then grew a slower connection and browser. I use IE and Opera. Opera is my default. A few days later I can't open all the apps without them immediately close it before they were properly open. I can't access PC to change the settings. I tried various solutions of MS and other Malware software. Both have had some effect, but not resolved the issue. I can now open apps, limited reach 95% of the installation of an update of windows instead of 0%, have the automatic internet connection... still have slow service, part 3 and MS preinstalled apps cannot be opened and no access to notebook settings.

    Somewhere along the way 20 + new apps appeared, all administrative tools.

  • App stack (Toad for Oracle) cause VM to black screen and disconnect?

    When we attribute our Toad for Oracle (12.6.0.53) stack, the user will receive see the connected virtual computer, but before I get into the office will get a black screen and disconnect.

    Now, if not assigned, the user can open very well.  When we assign the battery, apply immediately, the app looks and works completely fine.  So the app itself isn't a problem, but something that happens when you try to attach to what is.  How do I investigate what happens?

    Then I temporarily mounted a 2.5.0 environment and recreated the Toad for Oracle stack with the 2.5.0 release model.  And Yes, it works!  I imported the battery in my 2.5.2 environment and it is attached to the connection of the user without any problem of disconnection.  I think that this remark made in the SR as well.

  • Stops shortly whatever I try capture settings.

    It seems not to be possible to tell Premiere Pro to capture a video until you tell it to stop. To save others from taking a trip around the web for a help page, I already found and read this topic. We try to capture VHS video. Typical VHS player attached to a Datavideo DAC-100 converter. Output of the converter via FireWire.

    I will first discuss the steps that we have tried. Ask it to save time if we tried x, y, z.

    (1) disabled the scene Detection and interrupting the capture on the loss of images (in fact, never had them to attempt).

    (2) under control of the device, we tried so many choices Datavideo (which is the type of converter that we have) and generic. Also tried all three options Format of the timecode with the two device options.

    (3) try with the control device set to None (which produced the best race we could get with a manual start).

    (4) it's the Middle 2010 Westmere Mac Pro, 6-Core Intel Xeon with 16 GB of RAM.

    (5) have tried Snow Leopard, 10.6.8 under Lion 10.7.4 with first Pro CS 6 and first Pro CS 5.5.

    (6) tried clicking on tape to start recording (the worst results no matter what other settings) and a manual start (the best).

    After going around in circles, we finally determined what is happening. Premiere Pro prevents the capture anytime he thinks he detects a difference of time code. And no matter where we have the settings.

    If you click on the Strip to start, this is the worst. Any change (the video camera was turned off and turned back on even five seconds later), the capture will stop. Very boring because the band is still underway but you must reject the naming area and then click on save again. Meanwhile, you have lost the part of the video that was still ongoing struggle to revive. No, you can't save because he continues to stop at the same change in reading.

    What works the best was to adjust the device none, so the capture would not get any type of timecode information from Datavideo device and clicking the manual record button.

    Still a problem, though. Registration will be walked a few changes in the time codes without stopping, but always stop on a major change. As the videos of family a few months apart. They are right next to each other on the Strip, like a cut scene, but the capture stop! And yet, you can't back up to get these rate 5-10 seconds because Premiere Pro will keep stopping on the switch.

    So, how in the world can you tell Premiere Pro to continue to capture until YOU tell it to stop?

    Well, I think I have a definitive answer on this. I have filed a bug to Apple report and they said that they could not reproduce the problem. Which is pretty hard to believe after narrowing the real problem. I went to this topic much more slowly and methodically and came up with a completely reproducible question. The problem is Adobe applications (in part). Specifically, the installation of.

    With Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion, I started by erasing a disc and install the operating system from scratch, then it was clean. No third-party driver not added, all updates applied. At this point, you could capture video with no blocking or unexpected, stopping using QuickTime X and QuickTime 7.

    I then installed the CS6 Master Collection. Just after that, the judgments of capture returned. A matter if you have tried to do in QT directly, or the Capture function in Premiere Pro (which uses QT to do anyway, so it's really the same thing). I did the same test again on a disk are deleted and CS5.5. In all cases, the results were the same. Video capture was broken after installing suites Adobe.

    The difficulty was to reinstall the OS after installing Adobe software. A pain in the rear, but it fixed regardless of the installation of Adobe broke.

    The only thing that is a problem with QuickTime directly, it's how it picks up the signal from the VCR. You need to start the tape first, and then the capture. If you do anything with the VCR, after capturing has already begun (stop, rewind, play of forwards), capture stops immediately. I have report as a bug to Apple. QT should not pay the least bit of attention to what the user does in the VCR. The only thing she should do records analog output until you tell it to stop.

Maybe you are looking for
